Lyrics editor: Lstar
Each time on my leaving home
I run back to my mother's arms
one last hold and then it's over

Watching me, you know I cry
you wave a kiss to say goodbye
Feel the sky fall down upon me

All I am a child with promises
All I have are miles full of promises of home
If only I could stay with you
my train moves on, you're gone from view
Now I must wait until it's over

Days will pass, your words to me
it seems so long; eternity
but I must wait until it's over
